Aria
Anaya
Jiya

Akriti
Nisha
Kiran
Anjali
Jyoti
Shivani
Nikhita
Priya
Divya
Simran

From your list, I quite like Ruhi

I also love Layla, Leilani and Maya.

[Robertaquimby]

Jaya is another one which is pretty and easy to pronounce.

[Robertaquimby]

My name, my Granny's and dd2's are all on this thread.

[Provencalroseparadox]

My nanny's granddaughters are Layla, Mayssa and Assiya all of which I think are beautiful

[yongnian]

From your list I like Reya best
Also
Shashi
Suna
Shibani
Jamuna
Jala
Sumitri
Kalindi
Piyari

[wickedwaterwitch]

I think Maya is lovely and is definitely easy to pronounce

[RiverTam]

Maya and Reya are lovely.

Shivani
Shamira
Hina/Mina
Naavi

[namechange7711]

Dhara might well be confused with the male (Irish) name Dara, due to Dara O'Brien's popularity.

Rhea is the name of a bird, if that bothers you.

If you want a name that's easy to pronounce I'd say Maya is the best from your list. Tara, Nina, Anita, Monica, Monisha, Urmi, Priya and Anjana would also be good I think.

[Titsywoo]

Simran

[annettec01]

Nisha and Riya are friends names and we have a maya and jasmine in school they are sisters

[StDogolphin]

Soraya

[jamenhej]

My favourite Indian names are Neela and Priya, love them!

[Ladycrazycat]

I like the names Naya and Anaya. Both are on my list even though we aren't indian (we have ties to the country though).

I also have friends in India called Aman, Amara and Sana which I think are pretty names.

[Aquiver]

Some lovely names suggested there OP.

I quite like:
Samira
Radhika
Khiana or Kiana
Rani (which means 'Queen')
Kumari
Maharani

Also, not traditionally Indian names as such, but Aria or Aaliyah are quite pretty too.
